Résumé
Little is known about benign non-melanocytic nail tumors, probably due to their low pathogenicity. They are commonly misdiagnosed as inflammatory or infective diseases. They have various features, depending on the type of tumor and its location in the nail apparatus. The typical sign of a tumor is the presence of a mass and/or secondary nail changes from damaged nail structures. In particular, if a single digit is affected by a dystrophic sign or a symptom is reported without any explanation, the presence of a tumor should always be ruled out. Dermatoscopy helps to enhance visualization of the condition and in many cases supports the diagnosis. It may also assist in identifying the right place to biopsy, but it never replaces surgery. Most common non-melanocytic nail tumors are analyzed in this paper, including glomus tumor, exostosis, myxoid pseudocyst, acquired fibrokeratoma, onychopapilloma, onychomatricoma, superficial acral fibromyxoma and subungual keratoacanthoma. The aim of our study is to review the main clinical and dermatoscopic characteristics of the most common benign non-melanocytic nail tumors, to correlate them with the histopathology and to advise practitioners of the best surgical management.
